Booked a holiday with friends (A & B) but haven’t yet paid anything (B has paid upfront)
The last few weeks A&B have been regaualry meeting up, going for dinner/drinks and round eachothers. Everything’s being posted of social media as well. Despite me living close by I’ve been invited to nothing.
I work with A and today mentioned if it was quite I might leave a bit early to catch an earlier train. Come home time she’s practically pushing me out the door saying I best not hang about or i’ll Miss the train. Less than 30 minuets later a post is put up of of her and B at a nearby restaurant. Now there out at a pub at the end of my road (again put all over social media).

Aibu to think they clearly don’t want my company. I hate the thought of spending a week away with people who don’t want my company and am worried about being left or (I know this makes me sound like a teenager)
Obviously I know this would put B out of pocket so I’m going to have to suck it and and go arnt I Sad

A is slowly pushing you out and B is none the wiser. Confront A OP, or be prepared to lose the friendship. Trust me.

Do you think they might be a couple? Because that would make things about a million time more uncomfortable in a shared space on holiday. I only ask because I used to work with two women who used to socialise together a lot (not quite the same as you as there wasn't anyone being left out). I didn't think that much of it at the time except that it was slightly unusual because work socialisation tended to be larger groups, but they were keeping the relationship quiet until one of them left the company.

Yep, they’re using you to get the holiday cheaper. Have a quiet word with B and tell her you’re sorry but you won’t be going and don’t let her change your mind. If they wanted your company they’d have invited you out. I’ve got lots of friends I socialise with and we often meet for coffee etc and we always ask everybody if they can make it because you never know who’s working, who’s got kids at home etc and you don’t leave mates out. They’re not your mates. Flowers
